Publisher's Synopsis
This text both challenges and supports readers with a look at the diversity of the human condition; an examination into the field of cultural anthropology, its findings, and its relevance; and the continuing role of cultural survival issues. Discussion questions encourage students to think in and out of context. Updated "Anthropology Applied" boxes show students how anthropology relates to modern society, and current examples recognize change within the field of cultural anthropology and encourage student understanding of a changing world.
